Which city is the food capital of the world?

The world's food capitals are Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, China, Popayan, Sichuan Province, Chengdu, China, Erdetsund, Sweden, Zahle, South Korea, Shunde, Guangdong Province, China and Macau Special Administrative Region, China.

Chengdu was awarded the title of Food Capital on February 28th, 21. Because of its highly developed food industry, professional food institutions, a large number of excellent chefs and traditional cooking skills, and by organizing food festivals, cooking competitions and other activities to promote and protect traditional food, Chengdu was awarded the title of "Food Capital" by UNESCO, making it the first city in Asia to win this honor.

Chengdu has the earliest brewery, the earliest tea culture center and the first vegetable industry base in China. Chengdu Duck, hot pot yellow diced fish, Pixian watercress and other dozens of foods are world-famous, and hundreds of cooking methods such as explosion, boiling, stir-frying, stir-frying and dry stir-frying have long been widely popularized. As the birthplace and development center of Sichuan cuisine, Chengdu has become one of the most important food centers in the world.

Shunde, as one of the cradles of Cantonese cuisine and the hometown of chefs in China, has long been a shining signboard in Shunde's city business cards. The election of Shunde as the "Food Capital of the World" will not only promote the upgrading and development of Shunde's food industry and urban industry, but also help to enhance Shunde's urban brand and international image.

Macao's food culture has a long history and unique connotation, which fully embodies the integration and harmonious development of Chinese and Portuguese cultures. Macao's characteristic old shops retain traditional cultural elements, which UNESCO attaches great importance to when it inspects the bidding cities.

There are also many delicious foods in Yangzhou, such as three-ding buns, thousand-layer oil cakes, double sesame cakes, jadeite steamed buns, dried vegetable buns, potherb buns and glutinous rice steamed buns.
